State Needs a Good, Sane, Sound Business Man in the Gubernatorial Chair. The people of Kansas are now in the throes of a situation caused by a political mountebank. Governor Stubbs is doing more harm to Kansas than all the grasshoppers, drouth and floods ever did. He is arraying labor against capital, telling the people they are worse off than twenty years ago, notwithstanding good crops and work for everybody; and in the same breath says the banks are bulging out with money, no one to borrow it. He poses as a Republican and acts with the Democrats. He has appointed more Democrats to positions than all the Republican governors combined since Kansas became a state. He framed a platform for the Republican party, modled after the Democrats. From the reading of the two platforms it looks as if Stubbs had held a conference with them before he submitted his to the party council. With all his blustering and bellowing he cannot point to a single act that he has started or put through, that is beneficial to the people of Kansas. Now that he is a millionaire the most of his time is spent in belittling those who are less fortunate by telling them to look at him, they should not be poverty stricken—knowing all the time he made his money of the poor laboring men, by paying them half wages, selling them their supplies at double cost, while building Railroads. And, mind you, he never complained about the Railroad companies being robbers when he was in the contracting business. Let him tell the people how he made his million. He misused somebody to get it. It is the unbounded duty of the honest, thinking people to turn this tyrant down at the November election The Herods and the Caesars were never as busy as Stubbs. If one disagrees with him his official neck is at once placed upon the block. The tyrants banished one occasionally, or took him in, but tyrant Stubs does not. What Kansas wants is a man for Governor who is no grand stand player, but a common sense, level headed business man, who will serve the whole people alike. Hodges, of Olathe, is the man. We believe in Republican principles but not in Stubbism. VOLUME XII. GOV.

SPRINGFIELD, MO. is a quaint old town and it makes one feel good to stop here. The culture and refinement of the old southern aristocracy is as fresh as before the late unpleasantness. It is indeed a pleasure to come in contact with the South's best blood, which is strongly in evidence in Springfield. The white people are kind and courteous and the blacks are all busy trying to accumulate some of this world's goods. The best of feeling exists between the races and all is as pleasant as a marriage bell. I USINESS MEN The John F. Meyer and Sons Mill ing company has been in existence since 1864.

He is located at 317 East Second street. TULSA, OKLA. It pays to transact business with men who have made a success of their private affairs, which is no doubt the cause of the great rush to establish business connections with the Central National Bank of Tulsa. Mr. J. E. Crosbie, president, is a great financier, and through him the bank has made a place well up in the ranks of the country's best financial institutions. While speaking of the bank, this ment on would be far from complete should it fail to mention Mr. J. M. Berry, the capable, efficient, polite cashier. He is every inch a business man and financier and has contributed much to the bank's success. MUSKOGE, OKLA. THE OKLAHOMA STATE BANK, located at Muskogee, enjoys the confidence of all the people.

To the Colored People of Kansas and elsewhere: Beware of the Knights and Ladies of Protection, an order that has robbed several colored people, and will rob many more if they continue to live up to its mandates. They are duping the hard working women and men of the race James H. Guy is the president, J. G. Grover treasurer Rev Fishback, secretary, holds the office only in name. He knows nothing of the internal workings of the order. They are sending agents over the state, fleeing the people. The Insurance Commissioner ought to stop them. He said if they had been a white order they would have been stopped long ago. They ought to be stopped. That is no reason why they should be allowed to dupe and rob the poor Negro. We warn the race to beware of this wild cat skin game. i COME TO OKLAHOMA If you cannot come now, invest a little money today.

Washington, an American Negro, and entertain him in their royal palaces, surely the American white man could afford to let the Negro have a decent coach to ride in on railroads in the South, and allow him an equal chance to earn a livelihood in the walks of life without discrimination. POLITICAL NOTES. County Commissioner Frank B. Sims, the popular candidate for re election is the idol of his district on the North Sule Everybody is voting for him. The watchword is "Progress and Economy." The board is working together in peace and harmony; so let it continue. It is unwise to put a novice in that office at this time. Vote for Frank B. Sims for county commissioner at the November election. Down with Zimmerman for third term as county clerk. He thinks he owns Shawnee county and the Republican party. He don't perform his duty. The records of the county commissioners have been more than a year behind. They had to threaten to hold up his pay in order to make him do his work. Put young William Dickson, the Auburn township boy, in. He is not afraid to work. He has toiled in the sun and rain, borne the heat and burden of the day as well as the cold and frost days and nights to succeed as a farmer Give him a chance. He is a tax payer. Don't make a real hog out of Sam, although he says he is a watch dog. Vote for William Dickson for county clerk. ```markdown ``` A. L. Becker, candidate for sheriff of Wyandotte county, is serving his first term; was renominated without opposition. He is a fine man and stands well with the people of his county. Let everybody rally to his support. He is a friend to the laboring man, being one himself. Hon. Dan Anthony, congressman from the first district, will be re-elected with little opposition. He stands for progress and progressive people. He has done much for Kansas and his district. He is a friend of the laboring man and the business man. He is a young man who devotes his time to his constituents. He is now said to be one of the ablest young men in congress. Vote for Dan Anthony for congress and you'll make no mistake on November 8th. Charles N. Waddell of Nickerson, the Republican nominee for sheriff of Reno county, is a gentleman in every way, a friend to the Negro. He will and M. H. CHARLES N. WADDELL, Reno County, the Logical Man for Sherisff. CHARLES N. WADDELL, Reno County, the Logical Man for Sherisff. should receive the solid support of every Negro voter in Reno county. The colored people can not say that Waddell will not be fair to them, for he has never held a county office to see what he would do. Vote for Waddell. Mr. Waddell was born in Highland county, Ohio, in 1861, and came to Kansas in 1884. Was connected with the Santa Fe for five years. There are but few, if any men in Kansas who have more good, substantial friends than Hon. Henderson S. Martin. Although a Democrat, men of all parties cling to him and are ever ready to take hold of and boost for any proposition that Mr. Martin may put forth and advocate as being the best for all the people. He is a lawyer, statesman, diplomat and all around good fellow; his judgment being sought by men in all walks of life. Kansas has sent men to Congress from the ranks of almost every political party, and now while the state is in the throes of a calamity, the people of the Fourth district see in him a good, safe, sane and sound leader—one who will use every effort to promote the welfare and prosperity of Kansas and her people. Mr. Martin is a native son, one who is familiar with every heart-throb, every impulse that brings joy and happiness to the home of the sable Kansas. He is the one man who has gained the confidence, honor and respect of men of all races, creeds and colors. He is making the race for Congress against Attorney General Jackson. Mr. Martin is a born genius, a man of great natural ability, fair minded, brave, courageous, strong, bold and fearless and if sent to Congress will represent Kansas and her people in a manner that will reflect credit upon the state.

PASTOR CHANGED We regret the loss of Rev. J. E Edwards as pastor of St. John A. M. E. church. He has served his congregation faithfully for the past five years. He is a dignified Christian gentleman, and an able speaker. He has added a large number of young people to the church. His large congregation on Sunday morning was composed largely of young people. The church has a splendid choir, an intelligent board of trustees and a loyal number of stewards and stewardesses. He was assigned to Wichita, where he will continue the good work.

I would like for the readers of THE PLAINDEALER to understand that the report published recently concerning the marriage of Solan Bell and Miss Ona Perkerson is not true I think that jokes are all right in their place, but sometimes they are out of place, and this particular joke is entirely out of place. I trust that hereafter when the correspondent gets ready to send in the news, he will first find out whether his reports are true before he sends them in. MRS. R. B.

We welcome you because of the good which you have already done to human life in letting this blood and flesh West, North and South with your schools and colleges, and in sending missions to foreign lands to spread the gospel of truth. We welcome you because you bring to us such noble characters as the Lord How The Lord grant, whose counsel is not only sought by members of our life, but is most gladly received and appreciated by members of our district even to the chief Executive of the Nation We welcome this Christian gentleman because in his zeal to build up his chin and demonstration, he has not lost sight of the fact that the saving of souls is the chief end to be obtained, and with this thought foremost he has probably done more to old souls to the cause of Christ than any other bishop or the connection. What the world is demanding today is "Men", intelligent men, high-minded moral men, with powers as far above dumb butts endured in forest brake or den, as bears excellent will rocks and brittles alike. Men, who their duties know, and knowing dare mountain." Men who are eager to throughgo ing conscientious and with manhood enough to take a stand for honesty, demean, charity, sobriety, and the social elements which tend to make the world better. Men of action and not or works. Men who will not only say things, but do them as well. Men who will not only preach but practice also, as precept and example in the move, powers which move this world of tears. and it was organized at the mutual good of humanity, therefore it is a duty which we owe to our fellow men to help in charity come not so much in giving as in the coming and we desire our greatest joy comes to us when we find that we are instrumental in helping others to help them live. It is said that good works were not inspired in the thought or wealth, but by the love or the beauty. Great musi- dions were not inspired by the thought of money, but by sweet and humane souls. Great opinions were not inspired by pennny motives, but by the appro- cation of benevolent and kindling thoughts.常常 expressed so that we is true Christianity be inspired by love of humanity, love of Christianity and love of God the true author and given on all good gifts.

Mr. Booker Washington had an opportunity of visiting several Poor Law institutions in London yesterday and of driving through some typical working class districts. His mission to Europe is to see what is being done to help those whom he describes as "furthest down", and it is his intention, when he returns to his own people, to make some attempt to put the impressions he has gained into concrete form and so improve the conditions under which the negro race lives. He started on his tour of inspection in a test cab shortly after lunch room opened by Mr. John Banns, President of the Local Government Board, who pointed out and explained the work done by various municipal institutions. The test cab show up at the Houses of Parliament and Mr. Book I Washington was shown over the building. Afterwards Mr. Banns took him to his own constituency, where the municipal institutions were visited the tour finishing up with a walk through Butteset Park. VOTE FOR Jim Smith Treasurer of Atchison county. VOTE FOR J.P. Adams Republican candidate for Probate Judge of Atchison county. W. H. Banning Candidate for Sheriff of Douglas county. VOTE FOR W. H. Courtney Republican Candidate for Sheriff of Leavenworth County. Invited by a representative of the Morning Post to give his impressions of what he had seen, Mr. Booker Washington said he was especially struck by the sight of our beautiful parks and their means of recreation, our housing schemes, baths and wash houses. The impression left on his mind from what he saw was that it had been worth while to create these things. He had never before seen a wash house which could be used in common. It was a capital Hew. Mr. Booker Washington starts for Skibo Costle, the Scottish seat of Mr. Andrew Carnegie, to morrow. He will remain there for a few days, and on Saturday will pass through London on his way to the Continent, where he will study working class conditions of living. He will be back in London in October, and on the 6th of that month will deliver an address at the National Liberal WICHITA, KANS. S.
